As I mentioned earlier, after changing to syntetic oil my engine seemed to
run more smoothly and more quiet. Today while freeway driving with the
synthetic oil in the engine I noticed that when I set my cruise control at
4000 rpm my speed was 72 MPH. Formerly with regular oil it was 70 MPH when
set at 4000 rpm. Interesting results and I thought you all might be
interested.
